Departing towards Columbus Square (Plaza Colon), visit the San Marcos Cathedral and Casa de la Cultura, both built in the workshops of Gustavo Eiffel. Continue to the 'Morro' of Arica, a rocky outcrop overlooking the city to enjoy a panoramic view of Arica. Follow the old road up the Azapa Valley with views of the Geoglyphs on the hillsides.
Upon arrival at the Archaeological Museum of San Miguel, you'll have the chance to see the Chinchorro Mummies, the remains of ancient fisher folk who developed mummification in this area 5,000 years before Christ. The mummified bodies and the fragile remains of their culture were preserved in perfect condition due to the dryness of the desert sands.
